Mathias- Thanks for the quick work. Despite the issues noted below, this is a major improvement over psmouse.proto=bare, which was driving me insane with the accidental touch-clicks while typing. Thank you so much for your quick response!
This kernel does allow the touchpad to be recognized but still seems to have some issues: 1) Intermittently, the pointer stops responding to the current touch; a) I can usually (~70%) replicate the behavior by moving the pointer into contact with the left side of the screen. Once it touches that side, the current touch no longer changes the pointer position. Lifting that finger and re-touching the pad starts the pointer moving again. b) I also see this behavior when the pointer is not near the screen edges, but is unpredictable, and in 30 minutes of testing, I haven't found a consistent pattern for replicating the issue. 2) the two finger scrolling does not exclude the button areas; e.g. if I rest a finger on the primary button, I can no longer move the pointer, only scroll the screen. In other touchpads I've used, the button area was excluded from two-finger scrolling issues. This issue is less concerning than #1, but the experience is very unnatural. Again, thanks for the fast response; I'm happy to run any other tests that you think might diagnose the issues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1372609 Title: Touchpad detected as mouse on Asus ux303ln laptop Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux package in Arch Linux: New Bug description: Hi! I'm following the bug reporting documentation here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection#In_case_Touchpad_features_like_scrolling.2C_tapping.2C_etc._do_not_work_at_all. The touchpad on my new Asus ux303ln laptop is detected as a mouse, so I can't access touchpad features such as two-finger scrolling. The laptop was very recently released and I couldn't find any outstanding firmware updates for it through Asus's Windows-based tools. % lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS Release: 14.04 Per the instructions on the wiki, I'm attaching output from /proc/bus/input/devices,` xinput --list`, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log. This machine also has a touchscreen, which I'm fairly certain is the "maXtouch digitizer" visible in the logs. I haven't yet restarted in Windows to see if it says anything useful about the touchpad, but I can do so if that's helpful. This is a fresh install of 14.04 and I haven't done much customization of it apart from installing some applications and changing the default resolution. The only relevant bit I noticed in /var/log/dmesg is this: [ 3.967547] input: PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio4/input/input11 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: linux-image-3.13.0-35-generic 3.13.0-35.62 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-35.62-generic 3.13.11.6 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-35-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.4 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: tim 2234 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: tim 2234 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Mon Sep 22 14:30:33 2014 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=e6052f15-271a-4424-aac2-9b0ee1e490ed InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-09-22 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140722.2) Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 03eb:8a32 Atmel Corp.
